Title: Spoty brood pattern at end of season
Post by: Hemlock on October 18, 2010, 12:26:13 PM
Is a spotty brood pattern at the end of the season a problem now that the queen is laying less?

The bees are back filling with honey & pollen but there are still some empty cells

Its the end of the season.  That girl is starting to tone it down a little.

Looks fairly normal for this time of year to me.  Nice pictures.
